It’s easy to get caught up in conflict with people. When things go wrong, it’s natural to look around and blame others. Whether it’s a misunderstanding, a disagreement, or a person standing in the way, we often think the battle is with them.
But here’s the truth: the real battle isn’t against flesh and blood—it’s against spiritual forces.
The enemy loves to stir up division. He loves to turn people against each other, to get us to fight one another instead of fighting him. He knows that when we’re focused on each other, we’re distracted from the real battle at hand.
Don’t take the bait.
When you feel frustrated with people or a situation, remember: the real enemy isn’t the person in front of you. It’s the spiritual forces trying to destroy relationships, distract you from your purpose, and disrupt your peace.
The Bible says, "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places." (Ephesians 6:12)
So, stop blaming people.Start fighting the true enemy with prayer.Stand firm in God’s Word.And walk in love, even when the enemy tries to stir division.
The battle is spiritual—and you have the authority to overcome it.
